Scattering Angle Dependence of Fano Resonance Profiles in Cold Atomic Collisions Analyzed with the Complex Valued $w$ Parameter

The scattering angle dependence of Fano resonance profiles in cold atomic collisions has been theoretically studied. A complex-valued parameter $ w $ with an analytical formula describing the asymmetry of the resonance profile is proposed as a new development from previous work on electron resonance scattering from atoms [F. Koike, J. Phys. $\mathbf{B10}$, 2883 (1977)]. It serves as the general formulation which leads to the angle-dependence of Fano's $ q $ parameter. Calculations for the case of cold elastic collisions of hydrogen atoms with krypton atoms have been accomplished. The strong angle dependence of the resonance profile asymmetry in the differential scattering cross section due to the interference with non-resonant partial waves is demonstrated. The scattering angle dependence of the resonance profile and thus the newly proposed asymmetry parameter is highly sensitive to the inter-atomic interaction potentials. This is likely to prove useful for the study of interaction potentials themselves.

The quantum and classical Fano parameter $q$

The Fano resonance has been a familiar and important feature in atomic and molecular physics for more than half a century. Typically, the combination of a discrete state with one or more continua results in an asymmetric peak in the ionization spectrum. The peak-shape, called the Fano profile, can be expressed by a simple formula derived by Fano in 1935. However, the interpretation of its characteristic parameter $q$, which represents the asymmetry of the peak in the formula, is not necessarily intuitively transparent. The Fano resonance is not necessarily a quantum effect, but it is a manifestation of a certain physical mechanism in various systems, both quantum and classical. Through the derivation of $q$ from the known classical pictures with the classical coupled oscillator, we interpret the $q$ value with a geometrical view. And further, we introduce a complex valued $q$ parameter for the description of the resonance with a damped oscillator.

Collisional-radiative modeling of the $5p-5s$ spectrum of W XIV - W XVI ions

The wavelength and rate of the $5p-5s$ transition of W XIV - W XVI ions have been calculated by the relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) method with the implementation of Flexible Atomic code (FAC). A reasonable collisional-radiative model (CRM) has been constructed to simulate the $5p - 5s$ transition spectrum of W XIV - W XVI ions which had been observed in electron beam ion trap (EBIT) device. The results are in reasonable agreement with the available experimental and theoretical data, and might be applied to identify the controversial spectra. The confusion on the assignment of the ionization stage are solved in the present work.

Collisional radiative model for the M1 transition spectrum of the highly-charged W$^{54+}$ ions

A detailed-level collisional-radiative model for the M1 transition spectrum of the Ca-like W$^{54+}$ ion as observed in an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) was constructed based on atomic data calculated by the relativistic configuration interaction method and distorted wave theory. The present calculated transition energy, rate and intensity of W$^{54+}$ M1 transitions are compared with previous theoretical and experimental values. The results are in reasonable agreement with the available experimental and theoretical data. The synthetic spectrum explained the EBIT spectrum in the 12-20 nm region, while a new possibly strong transition has been predicted to be observable with an appropriate electron beam energy. The present work provides accurate atomic data that may be used in plasma diagnostics applications.

Theoretical investigation on the soft X-ray spectrum of the highly-charged W$^{54+}$ ions

A detailed level collisional-radiative model of the E1 transition spectrum of Ca-like W$^{54+}$ ion has been constructed. All the necessary atomic data has been calculated by relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) method with the implementation of Flexible Atomic Code (FAC). The results are in reasonable agreement with the available experimental and previous theoretical data. The synthetic spectrum has explained the EBIT spectrum in 29.5-32.5 Å,, while several new strong transitions has been proposed to be observed in 18.5-19.6 Å, for the future EBIT experiment with electron density $n_e$ = $10^{12}$ cm$^{-3}$ and electron beam energy $E_e$ = 18.2 keV.

Correlation, Breit and Quantum Electrodynamics effects on energy level and transition properties of W$^{54+}$ ion

The electron correlation effects and Breit interaction as well as Quantum Electro-Dynamics (QED) effects were expected to have important contribution to the energy level and transition properties of heavy highly charged ions. The ground states [Ne]$3s^{2}3p^{6}3d^{2}$ and first excited states [Ne]3s$^{2}3p^{5}3d^{3}$ of W$^{54+}$ ion have been studied by using Multi-Configuration Dirac-Fock method with the implementation of Grasp2K package. A restricted active space was employed to investigate the correlation contribution from different models. The Breit interaction and QED effects were taken into account in the relativistic configuration interaction calculation with the converged wavefunction. It is found that the correlation contribution from 3s and 3p orbital have important contribution to the energy level, transition wavelength and probability of the ground and the first excited state of W$^{54+}$ ion.

E1, M1, E2 transition energies and probabilities of W$^{54+}$ ions

A comprehensive theoretical study of the E1, M1, E2 transitions of Ca-like tungsten ions is presented. Using multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method with a restricted active space treatment, the wavelengths and probabilities of the M1 and E2 transitions between the multiplets of the ground state configuration ([Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{6}$3d$^{2}$) and of the E1 transitions between [Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{5}$3d$^{3}$ and [Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{6}$3d$^{2}$ have been calculated. The results are in reasonable agreement with available experimental data. The present E1 and M1 calculations are compared with previous theoretical values. For E2 transitions, the importance of electron correlation from 3s and 3p orbitals is pointed out. Several strong E1 transitions are predicted, which have potential advantage for plasma diagnostics.

Collisional-Radiative Model for the visible spectrum of $W^{26+}$ ions

Plasma diagnostics in magnetic confinement fusion plasmas by using visible spectrum strongly depends on the knowledge of fundamental atomic properties. A detailed collisional-radiative model of W$^{26+}$ ions has been constructed by considering radiative and electron excitation processes, in which the necessary atomic data had been calculated by relativistic configuration interaction method with the implementation of Flexible Atomic Code. The visible spectrum observed at an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) in Shanghai in the range of 332 nm to 392 nm was reproduced by present calculations. Some transition pairs of which the intensity ratio are sensitive to the electron density were selected as potential candidate of plasma diagnostics. Their electron density dependence are theoretically evaluated for the cases of EBIT plasmas and magnetic confinement fusion plasmas.
